Reframing

'Reframing' what we say is my thought of the day.

I said to a friend on the weekend 'I'm starting to dress more my age' & she pulled me up on our walk this morning saying, 'what do you mean more your age'?

What I meant was that I'm starting to dress differently as my body changes in perimenopause. Wearing clothes that feel more comfortable (hello linen and soft cotton) and clothes that look better on me as I change shape (thighs kissing and tummy softening)! I see it as a natural transition as my body is going through my 'season of change'. 

I love beautiful clothing and 'dressing my age' isn't about dressing the way that society thinks one my age should dress, it's more about me feeling good in what I am wearing.

I loved her comment as we parted ways, when her husband asks her 'is that new clothing you are wearing' her retort is, 'yes, my body's changing'!

Cheers to that!
